Before the convention meets to se lect our' standard-bearers for the ap proaching campaign, allow a private in; the fanKs to make a lew statements and suggestions about the office of State Auditor. The people of Nor:h Carolina have Tlriquently in the past selected men . tof legislate for them whose mental capacity did not equal that of Solo mon, the wise; but they have always exercised great care in selecting men who were o handle their money, and tc this fact as much as any other we mjust Attribute the honorable name we bear in the financial world. jThejoffice of Auditor is one of the mpbt. important connected with the State f government. .Every dollar that is; pa d into or paid out of the State treasury is paid Upon his war rant. ; He fettles with everybody who ojves the State and everybody the State wea. His duties are multi- aftf4"oufJ aad exacting. He must un- uciouuu iuB exact nnanciai situation of the government and be familiar With all laws appropriating money or levying . taxes. Many of his duties cjtn only be learned by long study ajid experience, l'ut an inexperienced njan'in this office, no matter how honest he may be, he is apt to com mit errors and make mistakes to the detriment of the tax -payers. Now the point I wish to make and ibpres upon my fellow citizen is this: that it is sometime best to let $ell taioiujh alone; that our present .uaircr, wen. w. tr: xtooerts, is a gentleman of the highest character and intelligence; that he has made in A is no 7 making a model officer, attentive lo his duties, scrupulously correct and honest, and looking after tjhe people's money as closely as if it W8 his own. I This man Roberts has a record that ihould please every white man in the Statei When the war began it found trim, though a beardless boy, in the Saddle as a private in the Second North Carolina Cavalry. When it glided it found him still in the saddle but with the stars of a brigadier gen era! 0n his collar, which were won by the most intrepid and daring gal-jant.-y on half hundred battlefields. After the war was over he did not sit down to bewail his fate or wait for CONGRESS. PROCEEDINGS YESTERDAY SKfATE AND HOUSE.

On motion of Mr. llouck, cj Tenn., the bill was passed authorizing the construction of a bridge across the Tennessee river at Knoxville.

He bit terly opposed the protection system and denied that flf was the cause of the progress of the country and . in veighed against pools and trusts, which he denounced as evils directly traceable to high tariff. Mr. Woodburn, of Nevada, contro verted the claim of the Democrats that their party was the friend of the laboring man, and bitterly de nounced the policy which he said was outlined bv the Mills bill of surrendering American mark ets and American - labor to the free traders of Great Britain. Turn-, ing his attention to the- Cobden Club Mr. Woodburn saw. that it was an association of British manufacturers for the avowed purpose of destroy ing the protective tariff system of America and to facilitate the sale of British gooda in American, markers It had established" agencies in New York and Chicago for the distribu- 1 ' f T" ' 1 ' 1 1 . 1 J a tion i xruiF.u ireo uaut) uocunieuis f something to turn up," but went to Tin the political canvasses of this We will offer for sale this week the fol lowing grand bargains. 2,0001 177l-2c. yards new style combination aitlhgs 13 l-.zo a yara, wortn 3 A Art yrda naw style percales Nfor jUUU boys waists at a, wor th 12 1 Jc .

Roberta is now and Always has been a farmer, should not be against him in the Democratic party, nine-tenths of whose voting strength is from men belonging to that honorable and honored calling. As a soldier Gen. Roberts- was a success; as a farmer he was .and is a success; as a public officer he is a model kind and courteous to all peo ple,: obliging and affable to those who have business with him and exceed ingly careful and pains-taking with all matters which concern the people's money. In the east where he is best known he is a popular favorite and will add much to the strength of the Democratic ticket. In the interest of the: Democratic party and honest gov ernbant (for the two, as we all know, are inseparable,) we should unite in keeping this tried and faithful ser vant in the office he fills so well, and old Iredell should help to keep him theire.

He held in his hand a list of the mem bers the Cobden Club on the 1st of Jan. 1888 and on the back of the book of record was the motto of the club "free trade,", "good will among nations," and "God save the Queen." He proceeded to read the list of members and caused much amusent by sandwiching the names of Americas, members between those of the dukes and earls. Among the names of Americans which he, read were .those- ol Senators Beck and Vance, Secretaries Bayard and Endi cot William R. Morrison and Speaker Carlisle and in reply to ques tions said: "There is not a Republi can today in public life on the roll of the Cobden Club. (Applause-) He said the present British Chief Seer tary ior Ireland, Mr. isanour, is a member and he appealed to adopted citizens of Irish birth not to assist in perpetuating in power a party whose leading members voted for Cobden frtee trade. Cobden free trade meanly that the parliamentary in dependence of Ireland was eatirely valueless. : Could they still cling to a party exisiing on ivn empty duo at tractive sound; that held out as a shining example of its confidence, of patriotism and liberality an ex-mem ber of the: House who basely apolo gized to the Minister at V ashing ton for his contemp'iblo duplicity in in'roducing a resolution of inquiry as to the legality of the trial of an American citizen condemned and exe cuted by a British jury and a British court? He referred to A. S. Hewitt, the Democratic mayor of the Democratic city of New York A Mr. Woodburn concluded speak ing v'r. Bryce, of New York, crossed the main aisle and excitedly de nounced as a misrepresentation Mr. AVoodburn's allusions to A S. Hewitt. Mr. Woodburn "I have said noth- tog but what I can prove." "I Bay it ia false," exclaimed Mr. Bryce. Several ; Republicans slated that what Mr. Woodburn had said was a matter of: record and a matter of notoriety.' " Mr. Brijimm, of Pennsylvania, who was seated within a foot or two of Mr. Bryce, suddenly plunged into the controversy,' and, shaking his fin ger in front of Mr. Bryce's face, said : "Mr. Hewitt acknowledged it on the floor of the House and apologized for it. I offered personally to investigate it. So when you say that this man (referring to Mr. Woodburn) says an untruth you say wbat is false." In a moment the House was in a state of great confusion and members crowded around the two gentlemen, who, facing one another, continued an angry colloquy, which was, how ever, not intelligible. "If there is power in this House to have order," cried Mr. Buchanan, of New Jersey, "I demand order. Let the gentlemen go out into the lobby." "Is this the Senate of the United. States?" queried Mr. Hopkins, of Ulinois, in an information-seeking toile, which set the House in a roar and which poured oil on the troubled waters, for in & few moments Messrs. Brvce and Brumm were seated together ansi talking amicably. Mr. Byhum, of Indiana, said that when the gentleman from Nevada (Mr- Woodburn) was reading the list of members of the Cobden Club he had propounded to him a question as to whetliei Uarheld, when he lived, was not a member of the Cobden Club, as weH as Murat Halstead. The gentleman bad responded that no Re publican living Was a member of that club. 1 Mr. Buchanan interrupted to de clare that Mr. Woodburn had been incorrectly quoted. What lie did say was that no prominent Republican was a member ol the club. 1 Mr. Bynum said that he had a r vised list of the members of the Cob den Club showing that Murat Hal stead had been admitted in 1880. It showed the name of Hugh McCullom ,the former Republican Secretary of the Treasury, .admitted in 1871; of Stanly Matthews, admitted in 18 10, a member of the United States Su preme Court.

De spite the unpropitious aspect of the weather, this morning, at an early hour the crowd began "to assemble upon Guilford Battle Ground and ere the day closed probably ten thousand people had traversed its historic soil.

Barringer, in a very few words, introduced Hon David Schenck, the historian of the battle and the orator of the day. Judce Schenck arose, amid the cheers of the multitude, and, after ad dressing the crowd, began. The oration wasVwell received. It showed that time, study and talent had been given it, and when it ap pears in print it will be one of the most valuable contributions that has been made to history for years. It is a complete history of the Guilford Court House Battle in detail, involv ing nothing but historical and geo crraohical facts. After the oration Governor Scales was introduced and made a few very interesting remarks in which he as cribed the credit of the conception and arrangement of the celebration to Judge Schenck.

Unless there shall be a stormy day, or some unusual necessi ty, the cars will not run nearer the graded school than the corner cf Cabarrus s reet, but that is only two hundred and fifty yards distant. The cars on Blount street will , .... .1 - pass eacu otner near tne corner 01 Pec street, three ears running on the Green line. 'As to the Yellow line we cannot spt ak definitely for the present, but we fear that the heavy grades on Hal ifax street will prevent us from regu larly leaking a twenty minutes' sched ule from the transfer switch to l eace Institute and return, and to continue that line may derange the entire sys- teai. We have made every effort to keep up this line, and if possible we will, but we are afraid that we wul be obliged to run the cars on Hargett street only.

Shooting Sensation In Asheville. Asheville Sun, th. Quite a sensation was created on our streets vesterday evening about 3 o'clock by tho report of a pistol. Mr. E. D. Carter, a prominent young lawyer of thia city was shot in the left leg by Mrs. Clara Beaver. The particulars, as far as we were able to iiearn, are about as follows: Several months ago it seems that Mr. Carter had been employed in a aw suit against Mrs. Samantha Wil son, mother or Mrs. Deaver. un several occasions, since the trial, Mrs. Wilson has had many unkind things to say to Mr. Carter, and yesterday evening, while he was walking up College street near Woodbury's sta bles, he met Mrs. Wilson, who com menced to abuse him in such a manner that he could not stand it any longer, and raised his hand and slapped her to the ground. He was then arrested and taken to the mayor's office, but while waiting for the mayor to return he walked down on Patton avenue, and just after passing Summers' mar ket, Mrs. Deaver, who was standing near, deliberately and without a word of warning, shot him from the rear, tbe ball striking just above the knee and inflicting a painful flesh wound. Immediately Mr. Carter whirled " and seized his assailant. By this time Deputy Sheriff J. M. Worley came up and arrested and disarmed her. She was taken before Esquire Malone, who bound her over in a bond of $200 for her appearance at the next term of the Superior Court. Mr. Carter was taken to hia room in tbe McLioud building, where he received prompt medical attention from Dr. H- B Weaver, and there is no apprehension that the wound will prove dangerous The friendB of the late Dinah Mulock Craik, author of "John Hali fax, Gentleman," are about to erect a marble medallion to her memory in Tewkesbury Abbey, Tewkesbury England.
